Colchester United have signed Southampton midfielder Moses Sesay on a season-long loan.
The 19-year-old, who joined the Saints academy from Chelsea last year, has played for England at Under-18 level.
Sesay is yet to make a league appearance for his parent club, but made one substitute appearance in last season's EFL Cup.
"Moses is a very gifted player with the ball. He can really speed up the game." U's boss Danny Cowley told BBC Essex.
"He's been involved with England. It's his first loan, so he's going to need time to adapt, but he's got some really good attributes. We're looking forward to working with him."

It’s safe to say that Notre Dame football had a great month recruiting, especially in the 2027 class.
The Irish added multiple prospects to one of the highest ranked groups in the county, with two from this past month standing out. Those two, edge rusher Abraham Sesay and offensive lineman Albert Simien are both ranked as 5-star prospects by Rivals, aside from a Texas commit, they were the highest ranked prospects to verbals during the month.
Only one other team made the list, Ohio State, but they barely did. The recruiting calendar has changed, but it hasn’t made a difference to Notre Dame. It has been able to make a quick adjustment and has started landing some of the best prospects across the county. Don’t expect this to stop with Marcus Freeman at the helm.
The 2028 class already has three commits, and could be adding more top talent at anytime. It’s extremely impressive the amount of talent there is in South Bend now, and in the future.

Notre Dame's hunt for a second consecutive top-3 recruiting class picked up another key piece on Tuesday afternoon.
The Fighting Irish beat out Clemson, Texas A&M and a host of other for four-star defensive lineman Segun Alexander, picking up their third commitment in June and 20th overall in the class.
"I knew by the second day that I was going to Notre Dame," he told Rivals' Chad Simmons. "After we finished our first full day of activities and experiencing the people, it just felt different. The only school that came close to that feeling was Clemson, but Notre Dame pulled ahead because of the people. It wasn't fake. It was real."
Alexander is another massive addition to the Fighting Irish's defensive line class, joining Rivals five-stars Abraham Sesay and David Folorunsho, along with four-stars Aidan O'Neil and Jackson Vaughn. Along with their five-blue chip line commitments, ND has 11 other four- and five-stars pledged. The 16 total blue-chip commits is now tied with Florida for the most of any program in the country this cycle.
The Fighting Irish's No. 3-ranked class actually sits ahead of both No. 1 Texas A&M and No. 2 Miami when it comes to that metric. A year ago, Marcus Freeman and Co. signed 30 prospects — 21 of whom are blue-chips — putting this pair of classes all alone for the most talented two-year run in program history.
